How to append something to an array?

Answer 1

If you're only appending a single variable, then push() works just fine. If you need to append another array, use concat():

var ar1 = [1, 2, 3];
var ar2 = [4, 5, 6];

var ar3 = ar1.concat(ar2);

alert(ar1);
alert(ar2);
alert(ar3);

The concat does not affect ar1 and ar2 unless reassigned, for example:

var ar1 = [1, 2, 3];
var ar2 = [4, 5, 6];

ar1 = ar1.concat(ar2);
alert(ar1);

Lots of great info here.
